<p>The measures set out in the Government’s statutory Cycling and Walking Investment Strategy, as well as the almost £2 billion being invested in cycling and walking over the current Parliament, will help boost the use of e-bikes as well as the use of conventional bikes. The Department has recently published refreshed cycle to work guidance to make it easier for employers to provide employees with cycles, including e-bikes, worth over £1,000. The Government is also encouraging the use of e-cargo bikes through the £2m e-cargo bike grant programme which contributes 20% of the purchase price of a new e-cargo bike up to the first £5,000 of any purchase price.</p> |
